Inspection Aid provides comprehensive timber pest and termite inspections for homeowners and investors in Adelaide. Our inspectors are highly trained, fully insured, and licensed by the SA Health Department to conduct your timber pest inspection in strict accordance with Australian Standard AS 3660. This service involves a careful and thorough examination of the property, focusing on identifying and reporting evidence of active termites, termite damage and workings, wood rot, borers, conditions conducive to timber pests, evidence of existing pest management systems, and risk management options. During the inspection, we conduct a detailed examination of timbers and other accessible materials or areas susceptible to attack by termites and other timber pests. This includes inspecting timbers in the load-bearing framework of the building, such as bearers, joists, and rafters, as well as joinery and finishes like mouldings, architraves, skirtings, doors, windows, and cupboards. We also thoroughly inspect wood and wood products in outdoor areas, including landscaping timbers, fences, logs, pool surrounds, garden boxes, firewood, paving blocks, sleepers, tree stumps, and trees. Furthermore, we assess surface work to foundation soils, walls, services, and any other visible susceptible timber materials like pergolas, bridges, builder’s debris, and stored items containing cellulose. To ensure nothing is missed, our inspectors utilize the latest advanced detection devices, including Flir thermal imaging cameras, Termatrac termite motion sensors, and Tramex moisture meters. The findings are compiled into an easy-to-understand report that may also highlight the need for ongoing termite management. With our professional and unbiased advice, you can make informed decisions regarding your property's timber pest risks.
